Carburator problem, idle proble

I just bougth my gsx 550 ef 1984 last week and now is my problem. When the bike il cold, to start it I need to run the engine arroung 10 000RPM until it´s hot. If i don´t maintain the rpm at this rate the engine stop and I´m not able to start again. I must start it the first time, of I miss the engine is die for an hour. The solution I found is to put a little fuel into the carg by the air filter and I have an other chance to start it. The fact is I don´t want to have this problem again. I think I need all clean my carb. since it´s havent run for 6 years that should be it

An other problem, is that even when it´s hot the engine do not maintain is idle. I search for the idle screw and never found it.

Please could you give me your suggestion since you have more experience than me in this bike.

To finish, I saw the rate for the bike it´s pretty low. Do you have some comment for this bike to show me I made a good purchace
